Sage Software, Computer Forms, Inc. Announce Joint Marketing Program to Benefit Sage Master Builder Customers

BEAVERTON, OR -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 21, 2006 -- Sage Software and Computer Forms, Inc. announced today a joint marketing program to promote the availability of time-saving, economical, one-stop shopping for all Sage Master Builder customers' computer form needs. Based in Tualatin, Oregon, Computer Forms, Inc. has already been providing high-quality printing services under the Timberline Office Forms label for Sage Timberline Office customers since 2004.

Under this new program, the services will be rebranded as Sage Construction and Real Estate Forms, and will extend to more than 10,000 Sage Master Builder customers across the U.S., as well as the nearly 20,000 Sage Timberline Office customers, making tasks such as payroll processing, checking printing, W-2 creation and year-end tax requirements faster and easier.

Sage Master Builder is an award-winning, fully integrated construction business management solution that links key areas of a construction company's business: estimating, production/project management, accounting, analysis and reporting into one integrated process.

"Teaming-up with companies that provide high-quality goods and services backed by a solid track record of customer satisfaction and loyalty is just another way we can help our clients improve their business and become more profitable," said John Geffel, Sage Software senior vice president and general manager, Construction and Real Estate division. "We receive consistent feedback that Computer Forms' customized printing service really does make business easier for our customers."

Van Tassel Construction Corp., an Ohio-based construction company and Sage Timberline Office client, credits the seamless integration between Computer Forms printing services and Sage Timberline Office as doing more than just making their day-to-day business tasks easier. Computer Forms came to the rescue one weekend when the construction company suffered the misfortune of an office-break in.

"The service was extraordinary," said vice president Dianna Van Tassel. She had to cancel all bank accounts immediately and was worried she wouldn't be able to get out the weekly payroll, which 35 people depended on. "I called Sage Construction and Real Estate Forms and they sent me a new set of checks overnight."
